The kenan & kelshow.

So who are you guys?

Well, we just saw
the cameras out here,
right?

And we thought
it would be all right
if we came out

And entertained
the people!

I'm lou!

Well, sorry to
disappoint you,

But entertaining
the people is our job.

Right. So, uh...
Get your own jobs!

It's ok.sorry.

I'm lou!

That's
wonderful!

A-all right.
All right, lou.

All right, kitti and lou!

Hope y'all get jobs!

Good luck!

Whoo-whee!

Kel, you know,
finding a job
can be a painful
experience, boy.

Heh heh heh heh.

Heh heh heh heh!

Kenan, why you laughing?
Did I say something funny?

Kenan, I'm gettin' worried.

Kenan!
Awwwww, here it goes!

All right,
that'll be cents,
please.

You know, I think
this apple's a little mushy.

I'm just gonna go back
and get another one.

Ok. If it makes you
happy.

Ok! There you go!
New apple!

You know what?

I think this one's...
This one's too red.
I'm just gonna--

Uh--wait--um--uh--
miss customer?

Uh, lunatic?
It's just an apple.

[Groans] ohh!

Hey!

Hey, kel.

Whoo! Orange soda.

It's locked!

It's locked!

[Sobs]

Kel, I think
the door not opening

Might have something
to do with

That big chain
that's wrapped
around it!

Oh! What kinda
inhuman monster

Would do this? Huh?!

[Sobs]

Chris! Chris!

Some sicko
put a chain
around

The orange soda
cooler!

Uh, kel,
chris is the sicko.

Wh-what's wrong
with you?!

Kel, do you know
that last month
you drank over $
worth of free orange soda?

Really? I thought
it was so much more.

It was plenty!

From now on,
if you want orange soda,
you'll have to pay for it.

And until you pay up,
the chain...stays put.

Oh!

I know you're not--

[Gasps]

The room's spinnin'.
The room's spinnin'!

I need orange soda
for life!

If I don't have
orange soda,

I can't live!
I can't live!

Well, I'll be
in the back,
fussing with
my hair.

Kel!

Aah!

Whoo!

Orange soda!
You got to give it to me!

Aah!

[Sobbing]

Kel, why don't you
just pay for
the orange soda?

Yeah, like where
am I supposed to
get some money?!

If only I could
do things for people
in exchange for money!

You mean like...
Get a job?

[Mumbles]
...et a job?

Will you stop
passing out?

I--but I never
had a job before.

Well, maybe it's time
you get one!

You think chris
would give me a job?

I don't know.
But it couldn't
hurt to ask.

I mean, the worst
that could happen
is he says no.

Uh-uh. The worst
thing that could happen

Is that he could
throw things at me [sobs]

And then throw me
in his closet,
fatten me up,

And then feed me
to his pet tarantula.

Hi, wendy.
It's me, chris.

Chris potter.

I've lived across
the street from you
for the last years!

I'm the guy who mows
your lawn every
saturday night?

Ha ha. Yes, that's me.
Yes...the goofy one.

Chris?

Kenan, kel, how long
have you been
standing there?

We just walked in, man,
just now, right now.

Oh.

Well, I'm just, uh,
fixing my hair.

Whaddaya want?

Go ahead, kel.
Ask him.

I don't know.
I'm scared.

Kel, come on,
ask him.

I'm scared!ask him!

What do you want, kel?

Um...

Do you have a giant
pet tarantula?

No.

Oh, that's all
I wanted to know.

Kel! Kel was sort of
wondering that maybe
you would consider

You know,
hiring him
to work here.

Oh, is that all?

Kel, you shouldn't
be afraid to ask me that.

You know,
if you want something,

The best way to get it
is always to come
right out and ask for it.

Well...

Can I have a job?

No! Are you kidding?

Get out of here!

Kel: awww!

[Whining]
I'm never gonna get a job!

I'm never gonna
get any dollars!

I'm never gonna get
orange soda.

Oh, wait a minute.

Maybe if I show chris
how good of worker I am,

He'll hire me!
Yeah, that's it!

Ah! This is
the one right here.
It's perfect.

Great.

Cents.

All right.

Oh, dear, I don't
seem to have any money.

You don't have
any money?!

Just get out.
Go. Go, please.
Could you please
leave?

Well!

I'm mopping!

[Crash]

Kel, what are you
doing?

I'm mopping.
I wanna show chris how
good of a worker I am
so he'll hire me.

You can't mop
right there in front
of the door.

And why not?

Oh!

What's going on here?

Uh...n-nothing?

Nothing?!

What is that customer
doing on the floor?

Oh! Th-well,
that particular
customer was
uh--uh--

Tired!

Yeah.
Now he's
napping.

Yeah, and the cookies...
They're napping, too.

Oh! Ok.

Well, that's more like it.

Well, I'm off to have
my legs waxed.

I'll see y'all later.

No--watch your
step--

Oh! Oh!

What am I doing on the floor?

Don't worry, chris.
The floor's clean.
I mopped it.

Oh, man, I'm doomed!

I'm never gonna
get a job.

I'm never gonna
drink orange soda
again.

My life is ruined.

Kel, don't panic,
man.

Now, there are plenty
of jobs out there
for young, smart,
hard-working guys.

And once all those guys
have jobs, someone'll
have to hire you.

You think so?

Yeah. We'll look
in here and see
what's available.

Hi, boys.
What's going on?

Just trying
to find kel a job.

Whoo! Kel,
that's great!
I'm proud of you.

Kel get a job?
Doin' what?

Hanging around
people's houses,
eating their food?

That's it!
Hanging around other
people's houses and
eating their food!

That's a great job!

There is no such job.

Man, I knew it was
too good to be true.

Right now we got to
figure out what
you can do.

Lemme see.
Lion tamer!
Nah.

Uh...president!

Nah.

Crash test dummy.

Nah.

Man, there's got
to be something
in here for you!

Wait, wait, wait.
I know.

I could be
a professional
puzzle put-together-er.

Yeah, that's it!
I bet I could put
this puzzle together!

No, kel,
don't touch it!

Don't touch it!
Don't touch the
puzzle, kel!

Y'all gonna need
to hire somebody

To fix the table,
so...

How about me?

Oh, yeah!
Come here.wait a minute.

I want to talk to you.

Aah!

Well, kel,
I'd just like to
thank you again

For getting me
kicked out my
own house.

No problem.

Did you find
any jobs in there
for me yet?

Not yet.

Man.

Eew!

Man, this donut
is nasty!

Kel, it's plastic.

Oh, well, then
it's pretty good
then.

How do they
do it, man?
It tastes just
like plastic!

Man! There are no jobs
in there for you, man!

All those jobs
require that you be
good at something.

It's not fair.

Wait! I got
another idea.
Can I borrow $ ?

No.

Man, that plan
seemed fool-proof.

I'm never going to
get a job.

Ow.

I'm sorry.

Ow...

Here's your
help wanted sign.

Oh, thank you.

No problem.

Now where am I
gonna find a job?

Here! You can work
here at stale's donuts!

Yeah, right.
Like they're hiring.

Actually, we are
hiring here.

How did you know?

Because I'm dave stale,
owner of stale's donuts.
You interested?

Oh, yeah!
Yeah, he's interested.

Very interested!

Have you ever worked
in a donut shop before?

No, I haven't
worked anywhere
before--

Yes, he has.
He worked in all
the donut shops.

Donut castle,
donut schmonut,

You know,
all them.

That's great!

But would you mind
letting him answer
the questions?

Well, I don't think
that's a very good
idea--

Well, I do.
Well, fine.

So tell me why
you think you'd make
a good stale's donut
employee.

Well, see...
I like to eat
donuts.

But, see, I never
have enough money
to buy donuts,

So I feel if I work
here...

I could eat all
the donuts for free.

You know,
you're not allowed
to eat the donuts
where you're working.

Well, that stinks.

I'm afraid
you're not quite
the employee we're
looking for. Sorry.

Ho-ho-hold on, man!

I'm sorry.

Kel has skills.
I mean, the boy
lives donuts!
Watch this!

Whatcha doin'?
Whatcha doin'?
Aw!

What that is?

Hey!
Our donuts!

Come here, come here.

Watch this.

Kel, flavor?

Honey glazed.

Chocolate sprinkle.

Maple bar.

Cruller!

[Shouts] bagel!

No guessing.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

But you get the point.
So, what do you think?

Well, he does seem
to know his donuts.

All right,
I'll give him
a sh*t.

You've got the job.
You start tomorrow.

I'll just take this.

Ha ha ha ha!
That's great.

Kel,
you got the job!

Whoa!
I got a job!

I got a job!

I got a job!

I got a job!

I got a job!

I got a job.

What if
I can't do it?

Don't worry, kel.

I mean, you're
gonna be great.

Hey, look at all
these jelly donuts.
Whoa!

Hey, kel,
you know what?

Y'all should put
peanut butter in there
with the jelly,

Then you can make
peanut butter and jelly
donuts.

Ha. Yeah, right.

Like, who puts
peanut butter
and jelly together?

Ha!
You're crazy.

But the sandwich...

Well, good morning!

I see that you're on time.
That's a very nice start.

Well, thank you.
I like to be punctual.

That's nice.
But why are you here?

Because I'm his friend.

You know, I'm here for
moral support and, uh...

Free samples.

Kel has to work.
I'm afraid you'll
have to leave.

Yeah, but I was
just gonna grab...

Kenan, kenan,
you can't come
down here,

You know,
hanging out while
I'm trying to work.

Ok? You know,
it's distracting,
inappropriate,

And downright
unprofessional.

Yeah, but you're
always hanging out
at my job.

Bye-bye.

I'm sorry.
Bye-bye.

Hold on now.

[All talking at once]

I'm taking something.
I'll take this.
How about that?

So, kel, are you
ready to see how
stale's donuts works?

Well, ok!

Let's go!yeah.

Now over here
is the batter bowl.

Now this is where
the donut begins
its journey to
your stomach.

And right below
the bowl is the tube

Which is right in here
which carries the batter

From the batter bowl--
ha ha ha--to the oven,

Which is a very
powerful oven,

Where the donuts
will be pressed,
shaped, and cooked!

Whoo!

Ok, follow me.

Kel! Over here.

Oh?

I've got something
to show ya.

I'm coming.
Come on.

All right.

Now right here
is the start button.

We call it the start button
because when you push it,

It starts. Ha ha ha!

I'm gonna push it now.

No, no.
Don't push it.

I'm pushing.don't push it.

[Loud noise]

And right here,
is where the donuts

Are cooked
and filled with jelly.

Jelly? You should put
peanut butter in with them.

You know why?
Because you could have

The goodness of
a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich
in a donut.

A peanut butter
and jelly donut.

Hey, that's not bad.

Ha ha ha.
Well, how do you know?
You haven't even
tasted it yet?

Of course.
It's so simple.

This could be big,
this could be very big.

I wasn't thinking big.
I think you missed the point.

I think it should
be a regular size donut.

You know what, kel?
I think you're
on to something.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

[Crunch!]

That's mine.
I'm sorry.

I'm gonna go...

Get to work.

Shredmore at the mound.

He's one pitch away
from the most amazing
victory in baseball history.

And here's the wind up.

And here's the pitch.

[Bang!]

Oh! Oh, man!
I was trying
to hit the cereal

And I hit--
kel, did you see that?

Oh, stupid donut job.

I'll call him.

Hello, kel.
Yeah, yeah, it's kenan.

I know you can't talk, but,
um, let me tell you quick...

Hello? Hello!

[Entrance bell rings]

Excuse me, young man.

You talking to me?
I mean, I guess
you must be,

Because any young man
that might've been
around here

Is now working at
the stupid donut shop.

I see. Are any
of these items for sale?

Yes. This is
a grocery store!

Selling items
is what we do!

I see.
I'll just look around.

Great.

Yo, kenan.

Hey!
Mort the jeweler!

Hey, kenan the grocer.
How's your pop?

Oh, you know, bald.

Ha ha. Very funny.
Very funny.

How you doin', kid?

I'm good, I'm good.
Can't complain.

Hey. How would you
like to hang out
with me here all day?

Oh, no, sorry.
I gotta go.

Hey, hey.
Do you want
some orange soda?

I really--
I gotta go.

Well,
just get out then!

I'm gone.

Say hi to mom and pop!

You know, you're just
like all the rest of 'em!

Grrrr! Stupid customers!

Excuse me, young man.

Yes, ma'am?

I think you dropped
your apple.

Sure enough.

Oh, kenan.

You've gotta try
these donuts from
stale's donuts.

They're amazing.

They're filled with
peanut butter and jelly.

Peanut butter and jel--

Why that little--
that's my donut!

Aahh!

Ha ha!

Ooh! Hi, kel.
Congratulations
on your new job.

Hey.

Yeah, we had to come
down here and see this
for ourselves.

Hey, rockwells.
What's happening?

Well, kel,
now that you're working,

Whaddaya say you slip us
a few free donuts?

I don't know,
mr. Rockwell.

I'm not supposed
to do that.

Roger, just pay him
for the donuts, please.

Now, cheryl, I'm sure kel
doesn't mind giving us
a couple of free samples.

I don't know
about this.

This is wrong,
this is wrong!

All right,
just a couple.

Well, give me
that one there.

The jelly, the jelly.

Jelly?
All right, jelly.

Ok. Y'all go ahead.

Thanks, kelly.

Hey, hey.

Y'all be good.
Be good.

Honey, let's go.

[Buzz!]

[Alarm sound]

Good-bye!

I'll see you all
tonight at dinner!

Nobody takes nothin'
from the donut shop!

That's good work,
kel.

You know, hiring you
may be the best thing
I've ever done in
my whole life.

Well, you must be
one sad little man.

I am.

But enough about me.

I just wanna
congratulate you
on your new donut.

Here's $ .
You've earned it.

Oh, wow. $ ?
This job is easy.

And I'll pay you
$ more for any
new donuts you
come up with.

Wow. This is cool!

Hey, kel.
What's with you inventing
the peanut butter
and jelly donut?

That's my donut.
You stole my donut.

I--i--i didn't mean to.

Aw, I feel all dirty!

Kenan,
I got paid for it.

You can have it.

I don't want your
dirty, measly ol'
$ .

$ In here.

I know.

Kel, that's $ , man!

That's like $ ,
but--more.

I know.

Then he told me
that he'd give me
$ for every donut
I invent.

What?

Now I'm gonna have
to tell him the truth.

I'm a fraud.

Whoa, whoa,
whoa there, hasty.

$ For every new donut?

Uh-huh.

Well, kel, meet me
back here tonight
when the store closes.

Why?

We're gonna invent
some new donuts.

Gonna be rich.

[Ka-ching!]

It's : in
the morning, man.

Now what donuts have
we invented so far?

Well, we got
the salt-filled donut.

Too salty.

Well, how about
the orange soda-
filled donut?

A little too soggy.

We got the fish-filled
donut.

Eeuw!

Why don't you
taste that one?

I ain't tasting
that one.

Remember, I tasted
the mayonnaise-filled
donut?

That's nasty.
I can't taste that.

Man. This invention
stuff is hard.

Yeah.
But wait a minute.

I got a donut
you're gonna love.

Wait a minute.
Stay there.

What is this?

Well, I figured
if people like
regular-sized donuts,

I'm sure they'll like
a really, really, really
big donut!

Kel, nobody could
possibly eat this
whole thing.

It's huge!

This is bigger than
a pastry oughta be.

No, no, no.
Check it out.

See, they could put it
around their waist

And eat it a little bit
at a time,

You know,
when they get hungry.

Kel,
that'll never work.

Yes, it will.
Look. Check it out.

Let me put this
around you.

Look at that.

Oh, man.
My arms are stuck.

Oh. Bad things
are happening.

This is how
you gotta do it.

All you got to do...

Kel, don't put it
on yourself.

You don't wanna
put that--

Oh, I'm stuck.

Now we're in
a predicament.

Go back, go back.

Oh, you're pushing me.

[Machine starts]

You hit the switch!
Turn it off!

Ooh ooh ooh!
Oh!

I'm covered in donuts!

What do we do now?

We gotta--

We gotta eat ourselves
out of this!

What the--

Hey, boss.

Hey! Kel's boss--

Or should I say--
former boss?

Remember me?
K-k-kenan?

We cooked the donuts--

For the next
years. Ohh!

Uh--what time should
I be here tomorrow?
